Holly George-Warren - FUV Live - 2014

Alex Chilton was one of rock's great, enigmatic characters. He was singing on hit singles for the Box Tops while still a teenager. He was a driving force behind Big Star, one of the leading purveyors of the power-pop genre. He became one of forefathers of both the indie rock movement and the lo-fi sound. He was also a master of deconstructing all that he had accomplished. Then, suddenly, at the age of 59, he was gone.
